From UFO 2: Flying (1971). UFO 2: Flying (sometimes called simply UFO 2 or Flying; also subtitled Space Rock) is the second studio album by English rock band UFO. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Flying V through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the nearest rig we use for UFO's other songs, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

Can I play "Prince Kajuku" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Prince Kajuku" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
